recommends this new Canadian variety for trial.

Strawberries 
In order to get the best out of strawberries you 
have to grow your own. Just a small patch will 
supply a lot of berries. They like ground with a 
lot of humus. It is well to have the main crop 
from, the June bearing kinds, and have enough 
everbearing for fresh berries.in the fall. Straw- 
berry plants must be planted at the right depth 
and .the roots firmly .packed. Care must be used 
to see that all roots are below the. level of 
the ground to prevent their drying out, but the 
top, or crown of the plant must not be covered or 
the plant will choke. If the plants cannot be 
planted as soon as received, they should be heeled 
in the ground in some shady place. We grow our 
own strawberry Ban and send out fresh plants 
well packed. 
We have tried many ail cae of strawberries and 
discarded most of them including EVERMORE 
and STREAMLINER. They just don’t compare’ 
with GEM, PREMIER. and-ARROWHEAD. 
Gem Everbearing—The -most - widely grown of 
the everbearers. Will grow a crop in the fall if 
planted early in the spring. The-~ earlier planted 
the better. 25 plants for $1.50; 50 ‘plants. for 
$2.25; 100 for $4.00. Postpaid, 1000 -for- $25.00. 
Premier June Bearing—The first to ripen - and 
still maintains a long season. A good dependable 
berry.-25 plants for $1. sr 50 for $2. oe 100 for 
‘$4200 postpaid. 
Arrowhead June Hearne cris new introduction 
from the Minnesota Fruit Breeding Farm ranks 
well at the top with the other fine products from 
this. station. The Arrowhead is particularly adapt- 
able to northern conditions. In addition to its pro- 
‘ductivity of plants! and fruits, the quality of the 
-berries is absolute tops in every respect, for eat- 
ding, canning, jam and freezing. It is excellent for 
-‘market, too, because of its firmness and attrac- 
tiveness. It is a favorite at the Morden, Manitoba 
station where it has been grown for several 
~years. Because the plants set so many runners 
‘they should be planted further apart than others. 
We set them at least three feet-apart in the rows.
